Graceland Cemetery is known for several ghost stories, most notably the tale of Inez Clarke, a young girl whose glass-enclosed statue is said to vanish and reappear during thunderstorms, with her apparition sometimes seen wandering the grounds. Another reported phenomenon is the Eternal Silence statue over Dexter Graves' grave, a large bronze figure whose left arm is rumored to move and into whose eyes legend says one can see the time of their death. Visitors also report seeing figures in the distance or feeling touches on their shoulders, though these stories are often efforts to debunk the legends. A life-size, glass-enclosed statue of Inez Clarke marks her grave. The primary legend is that during a thunderstorm, the statue disappears and reappears once the storm ends. It is said that Inez's ghost can be seen wandering the cemetery, sometimes playing with visitors before vanishing. The legend states that Inez was struck and killed by lightning during a picnic in 1880, at the age of six. This imposing bronze statue, created by Laredo Taft, is called the "Eternal Silence" because it is depicted with a finger to its lips. A widely circulated legend claims that if you look into the eyes of the Eternal Silence statue, you will see the moment of your own death. Some visitors and accounts suggest the statue's left arm may rise and lower throughout the day. In addition to specific legends, visitors and cemetery employees have reported strange occurrences like seeing figures in the distance or feeling disembodied touches on their shoulders. Some stories include the unexplained disappearance of statues from their locations.
